??? At least as stated, that makes no sense to me.

That's kind of the point: you could listen to an album you think you'll hate and end up liking it.

I always listen without preconceptions. I try to do the same for most things.

Then you want to write about it.Or you could hate something so much that you want to write about how awful it was. It's supposed to be part of the fun, but you and the Chuckle Brothers seem determined to disrupt things and try to change everything, when nobody else seems to have a problem with how things are.

For me, I don't like writing reviews unless I've listened to something at least, say, four or five times over a week or two. Even if I've known an album for a long time, I wouldn't be comfortable writing a review without listening to it a couple times over 2-3 days right before I write the review. Doing that regularly online, which I've done in the past with both music and films, it winds up feeling like a chore, like a job I'm not being paid for, rather than something enjoyable.
